You've misunderstood. I want to work at the company, I just don't want to be forced to contribute shareholder profits - just like you want to work at the company but don't want to be forced to contribute union dues.
- seibelj 5y agoThe goal of a for-profit business is to make money. There are plenty of non-profits and government jobs if you don’t want to get with the program. You may be shocked to find a lot of non-profits also need to make cash to survive, however.
- djrobstep 5y agoAgain you've seemed to misunderstand. I'm happy to work at the company and make money, I just don't want to be forced to contribute to shareholder profits, just like you don't want to be forced to contribute to union dues. Why should one be voluntary but not the other?
- seibelj 5y agoI voluntarily join a company. Me paying some third-party non-governmental organization to “represent” me when I never asked for it is the issue. However we keep going in circles and it is clear you are illogical.
- djrobstep 5y agoSimilarly, I voluntarily join a company. Me paying some third-party shareholders when I never asked for it is the issue. Where’s the lack of logic? The real issue is you won’t even begin to engage in explaining why these two things are different. It suggests to me you haven’t arrived at this position rationally, but through ideology (“corporations good, unions bad”).
